1. Young people are expressing their opinions about the countries they live in.
1) Listen to Maggie, Charlotte and Boris talking about their countries. What countries are they from? How do they feel about their countries? (listening for specific information)
2) Read through the teenagers’ opinions. What do they like about their countries? What don’t they like about their countries?
Maggie Williams: I love that we have so many “English things” that our country is recognised by, such as the bulldog, drinking tea, London, Queens and Kings and red postboxes. I love it when we celebrate things like the Queen’s Jubilee together. But I hate the weather. I often rains, never snows and it’s never really sunny The best thing about Britain is its history! I think everyone should be glad to be a part of it. I also love how we can be one big country and four separate countries too! But I hate it
when the Scots are thought to just play bagpipes* and wear kilts. They are some of the nicest people in the world! I also admire the famous people like Churchill,* Shakespeare,* Elizabeth I* and Jane Austen.* I’m very proud to be British. The UK is great!
Boris Chislov: Russia is large and beautiful. We have a lot of beautiful cities and towns. Tourists from different countries come to admire beautiful palaces, wonderful museums and ancient cathedrals and churches. Our landscapes are very beautiful, too. We are proud of our famous people and when the world speaks about our achievements. The history of our country is very interesting. Our country is very big and it’s difficult to keep it in order that’s why we’ve got different problems such as dirty streets and violence. I believe that people from Russia are great patriots; they love their country very much, but they don’t show their love... I don’t know what I like about my country. Maybe it is the place where I live, the language, the people and the food! I can’t think of anything I hate about my country! Russia is a great country and I’m proud that I’m from Russia.
Charlotte Kerman: America is a good country with great opportunities and... fine weather. The best thing about America is that there are so many different peoples and cultures. Besides, Americans are considered to be the most patriotic people in the world. And I think it’s true. We likе singing our national songs. Our flag is in our classrooms. We like wearing clothes with our national symbols. But I do not think that America is all good. Its worst thing is that in the cities there is a lot of violence. Sometimes I don’t feel safe walking along a street alone in the evening. But no doubt, I love my country and I’m proud of it.
